Astrid’s personality shines through in every interaction. She's confident, walks well on a leash, and loves to sleep by your side. She’s low to medium energy and doesn’t require much grooming. Potential adopters should know that she will need a secure environment, as her small size makes her vulnerable to predators when outdoors.
